Case Study - Follow me as I build another AdSense site

Good luck mate.Btw,why you relay only on article directories backlinks?
 
Have there been any updates?

I had some family come visit this weekend so I haven't had a chance to post until now. No real updates yet, still waiting for this last batch of EzineArticles to be approved.

Any organic traffic yet?

Not yet, I'm on page 18 :D

Good luck mate.Btw,why you relay only on article directories backlinks?

I don't rely only on article directory backlinks. Where did I say that I did?
 
Could you explain more about your link building strategies?
I'm quite curious as to that after the panda. You do 2.0 blogs and blast them or?

My SEO guy does most of the work for me, and has for the last few years. I don't want to say too much about what he does because I'm sure if I drop some hints, the buy/sell forum will explode with people trying to copy it and claiming it's the latest and best thing or whatever, claiming they've been doing it for years, and all that other jazz that the online SEO world loves to do. Except they will serve up poor quality bullshit that has been outsourced to the cheapest person on whatever other forum, and the end result will be crap. His prices are high enough that if I shared them, most people would go "lol, you can get that done for way less on (insert SEO forum/outsourcing forum/etc)" and then they would go "lololololol u r paying too much lolol!" while themselves wondering why the $5 stuff they bought on fiverr isn't ranking them for "get a huge cock" or whatever the keyword of the week is, and while they themselves go from forum to forum giving advice as if they actually know what the fuck they are talking about :lmao: It's hilarious and sad. In the past I have dropped a little SEO knowledge in threads before and I start getting PMs asking me questions... from the same people that are selling services and claiming to be "SEO experts". Shouldn't you know the answers to the super basic questions you are asking me? Oh wait, I forgot, you're just a worthless middleman. SEO EXPERT :lmao:

I have strong thoughts about the SEO industry if you haven't noticed :)

Basically, I get backlinks from relevant sites. And it's all white hat. That's my SEO strategy.

- all five Ezinearticles articles are in stage 3 of approval
- 10 visitors, all from existing Ezinearticles articles
- no clicks since the one I reported on the 10th
 
Subscribed, about time I put up a couple adsence sites, Good luck to you on this one :)
 
So your getting guest posts ;)

:D lol

Are you only going to target the main page (with the 500k keyword) ?

Is your domain near EMD ?

How long are you giving this, (what have you budgeted to invest into this project - roughly)?

What is your target (i.e when will you have reached your goal) - first page ? 1# ranking? $50 per day ?
 
Good stuff buddy! I write my articles as well. I write about 25 a day with a bit of mary jane. Build an empire buddy! Go!
 
It sounds like this thread went from "follow me" to I ain't sharing shit pretty damn quick. Good luck but if you don't want to share stuff then don't make bait threads. I'm pretty sure most people know how to put up a wp blog, write articles, submit to Ezine and watch analytics. I don't see anything shared here that isn't pre-school information.

Nope, but that's actually not a bad idea.

Are you only going to target the main page (with the 500k keyword) ?

I target the main page as well as some of the posts I've made.

Is your domain near EMD ?

Partial EMD.

I personally feel EMDs can be spammy.

Is anyone really gonna click on a site that is called how-to-make-your-dick-bigger-and-bang-super-models-on-your-yacht.info?

Of course, sometimes they can be relevant. dogtraining.com would be a good domain to have, for example.

How long are you giving this, (what have you budgeted to invest into this project - roughly)?

How long? I usually like to see my sites become profitable and pay for themselves within a year. I'm kind of figuring out the budget as I go, but it will likely be a few hundred total.

What is your target (i.e when will you have reached your goal) - first page ? 1# ranking? $50 per day ?

Top 5 would be cool. $50 per day? Ha. There are 14,000 exact searches per month. If I was #1, let's assume I would get 80% of those visitors, so that's 11,200, or 373 per day.

Now, let's assume a 2% CTR. I know everyone on the forums likes to talk about how they get 10% CTR and how huge their cocks are and how the bang supermodels every day, but in my experience, a 1-3% CTR is average over time, so let's assume 2%.

Now, the average CPC is $2.21, and the publisher gets 68% of that, so that's an average of $1.50 per click. AVERAGE. Some will be more, some will be less.

373 visitors per day * 2% CTR = 7 clicks per day.

7 clicks per day * $1.50 per click = $10.50 per day.

At best.

I would be content with $3-5 per day from this site.

This thread wasn't called "OMG SECRET SEO TECHNIQUES I USE TO MAKE $285.28 PER DAY HANDS FREE ON AUTOPILOT. SO EASY EVEN A NOOB CAN DO IT!"

It is called "Follow me as I build another AdSense site."

There are plenty of other threads for you to post in if you don't like this one.

- One more Ezinearticles article approved
- There are now a total of 3 approved articles and 4 more articles waiting to be approved
- Organically ranking on page 19. Was 18 yesterday. I'm sure this is temporary. I'm not worried. It would be silly to expect a good ranking after only like two weeks anyway.

Best of luck to you. I apologize I thought there was a point to this thread. I didn't realize this was just a "look at me" thread.

Seems like a lot effort and time to build a site that will only make $10 per day :/

Hmmm.. Good luck brah. Take a 2nd look at your model.

I am quite confident it is possible to build a adsense site for less than $500 and have it earn $10+ per day in 1 month max 2 months. 1 year is way tooo long IMO.

I said it would make about $10/day at most.

Using high quality stuff that will still be holding rank years from now? I'd be curious to read your journal :)

The only way I've heard of people doing it cheaper is by using XRumer or spam type stuff that works until Google devalues it.
 
IF.... I make a journal it will be in the Jr. VIP section ;)

But it will be golden brah!
